Wicked Ace Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 I should visit this forum more often. It's been a while since I've had a Mospeada fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyp Durron Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 (edited) C'mon, Kip. Don't talk in riddles. Let us know what do you think about fighter mode already! Well Ok, since you insist : It sucks so bad, it looks like it was designed by an Autistic child on crack. @ Totoro242 : Yes, I keep saying the same thing....because it's so horrible, I can't stop mentioning it. I'll be really dissapointed if that winds up being the final product, because I was really hoping that it was going to be a deceint offering from someone else besides Toynami. -Kyp Edited July 19, 2007 by Kyp Durron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am cautiously enthusiastic about the Aoshima offerings, because I don't have too many gripes about the Toynami sculpt -- I'd just like a few quality quirks ironed out. Of course, I do hope the CMs stuff we've seen does get some significant revisions. All in all, I'm glad Mospeada is getting some attention.

jenius Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 (edited) While I really like the Toynami/Aoshima sculpt, I do think it's a bit boxy and I dislike the Beta/Tread's cockpit. Obviously there are some QC issues that lead to some horrible problems like crooked Alpha/Legioss heads and arched backs in fighter mode. For those reasons I really have high hopes that CMs is back at the drawing board making necessary tweaks to their design. They clearly are going for a slimmer look (Maybe too slim??) and their reputation seems to indicate that confidence can be had in their final project. In the meantime I think it's time one of those prototype Ride Armors we've been hearing about shows up in some magazine so we have something new to discuss!

Lonely Soldier Boy Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 Listen to jenius. I've been checking out other CMs products recently and I'm sure we're in for a treat. Besides, as I stated before, CMs knows the competition is tough and they're aware of the pros and cons of the Toynami version, so it's a win win situation for us consumers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

konimon Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 I'm still waiting for the Megahouse Ridearmor Megahouse Ridearmor is definitely on my get list, since I am very happy with their Palm Action Orguss (but no, not Nikick...). My question is, why would CM's "rye DOAMA" be very similarly scaled to Megahouse one?? Someone should make this in RAH size. Anyway, I'd rather wait for better Legioss/TREAD than their current proto.

jenius Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 1/18 is just about the same size as the crappy Gakken smaller transformable Ride Armors... An interesting choice in scale. It seems it won't be competing much with the 1/10ish Toynami. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonely Soldier Boy Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 Those were really small. I don't see how CMs will do much better than Gakken in that scale. The article mentions Micro Man. I don't know wich scale are those since I don't own any, but I think they're bigger than the Gakkens, aren't they? I hope they're using those as a base, I remember that "Microman" transforming Garland that showed up around here a few months ago? That looked sweet.

danth Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 (edited) 1/18 is Microman scale, and GI Joe: RAH scale. It's about 3 3/4" tall. I think the tiny Gakkens were smaller. Edited July 27, 2007 by danth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 The Ride Armor in cycle mode dead center was sold by Gakken as 1/20 scale. The transformable ride armor that Gakken made is to the far left... and is also about 1/20 scale (maybe 1/22?) but with wonkier proportions. So the CMs version should be between the middle one and Matchbox's effort to the far right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonely Soldier Boy Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 (edited) Thanks Jenius. Thts makes it the around the scale of the Beagle one, wich is odd. I wonder if it's the same toy. Maybe it's a CMs/Beagle partnership? Edited July 27, 2007 by Lonely Soldier Boy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
protostar8 Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 I like small stuff that I can mess around with (like the tiny Optimus Prime and the small Valkyries that have come out). So, as long as the size doesn't hurt the toys appearance/durability significantly, I'm all for it. We have at least 2 other larger versions of the Cyclone/Ride Armor, so why not get a little one too, assuming it's cheap. Anyone know the exact prices on the different ride armors from the different companies yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mechaninac Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 They look far too wide at the shoulders, and Stig has a giraffe's neck; but other than that, not bad. Depending on price I may end up getting one of everyone they release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lonely Soldier Boy Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 What sold me was the opening saddlebags with all the little things inside and the likenesses. The bikes are still a bit disappointing for me, but the armor mode looks okay and the pilot looks okay too, despite the neck and shoulders, so it's 2 of 3 for me. I'm getting the whole line.

odr78 Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 No news for Pre-order.. But the release is on January 2008.... It's a pack... Legioss + tread + small Cyclone.... Watch HLJ everydays.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eriku Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Hrm...not that I think putting them all in one package is the worst idea in the world, but I'm worried it might knock these things out of my price range. Or it may be cheaper in the long run? I guess we'll see soon enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
protostar8 Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 I honestly can't warrant paying more than $100-150 for something like this anymore b/c I could buy two games for that price with some money left over if it's around $150 and I just think I'd get more use out of the games. That's why I'd love to see smaller versions of these things. I don't know why companies think they have to make them huge to be cool. I've seen plenty of cool smaller figures (like the stuff Studio HalfEye puts out, although they are UBER expensive so they aren't the best example).

Fort Max Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Oooooooooh, Source please! And the small cyclone is the tiny tiny one we've already seen? No that was by Megahouse and is about 4-5" tall. By small Cyclone, he means tiny, like micromachine size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odr78 Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Yes it's correct Fort Max... It's my seller who left me a message because I want to pre-order this too.... And yes, I can confirm that a pack with Legioss and tread in the same box He takes his information from CM directly.... And it's my provider of Macross's toys.... The Price is not confirm at this day... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
